What are the stock sway bar diameters? VIN is 6027
I've found one source saying 7/8 F and 3/4 R, and another saying .78
for
both????
>>>Although they are metric, the measurements roughly approximate 7/8
front, and 3/4 rear on US-market Panteras (including the GTS). The
larger "GTS" rear sway bar, measuring 7/8 (same as the front), was an
option on European Panteras (mostly found on Euro GTS cars, hence the
name), and all the Pantera vendors have tooled up to produce locally
made copies.
Dollar for dollar, switching to a larger rear swaybar while leaving the
front one alone, is probably the single best improvement you can make
to a Pantera, IMHO.
